It has been a while since I blogged about anything really. So I thought why not start one by sharing my recent makes. After four long years of studying, I have had almost no time to sew anything for my 'new' body. When I say 'new body' I mean, my completely ruined body after two children. From having 6 packs, I now have a bulgy tummy (diastasis recti) even though I have tried several different types of exercises to help strengthen the muscles. I do get questions about whether I am pregnant again. As much as I wish I was, I am not. It's just that the muscles in my tummy have forgotten to get back together. Seeking an expert advice is the next step.

See the tummy!

Having said that, being the Fashionista that I am and having finished my BA in Fashion Design, my current plans are to create my own wardrobe that compliments my 'new' body. So here is a dress I recently made. The fabric print is from my own artwork.

This dress style and cut suits most body shapes. It has certainly taken the eye away from the problematic areas. In my case the tummy. Very glad with the end results and believe it or not, I have had requests by other moms to custom make a similar dress for them. All in all this, design worked. I have another garment that was inspired by this dress to show you in the next blog post.Till then, have a pleasant week friends. OXOX

It has been a long time since I have been in this space. As some of you know I have been very busy with my final year in fashion school. I have graduated with a Bachelor degree in Fashion design. Since I am done with school, it only means I can finally be back to doing things I enjoy whilst working on building a small business.

For those of you who have followed me since day one, I am so thankful for your awesome support. I hope you will continue watching this space for interesting content and videos. Meanwhile, if you have any requests with regards to beauty, makeup or fashion design, just write it in the comments section and I will get back to you asap.

Hi, how are you guys? It's been a while since I was here! What can I say, life has been very hectic for me and some things have been neglected. Sadly, my blog is one of it. I am trying not to sweat the small stuff and do the best I can, doing the things I enjoy. So here is one a quick non voice over makeup tutorial, featuring the amazing Urban Decay Electric Palette. This pretty thing seriously needs more attention. Hope you enjoy the video!

Getting back to blogging and video making. It's almost impossible to do what I enjoy doing with young kids. That's motherhood I suppose. Anyway here is a swatch video on the L.A Girls Glazed Lip Paint that I recorded months ago and finally got to edit and post on my Youtube channel (Link HERE). Below are photos with the lip paint on my pigmented lips.

These above mentioned are the 18 Glazed Lip Paints that L.A Girl carry. I liked all of them except for the two which I have indicated with an asterisk *. They wore comfortably on my lips without feeling sticky. They did last for about 4 hours without a need for touchup however I did not eat nor drink during this time. They are pigmented but do not compare with OCC lip tars as other bloggers claim. They did bleed over my lips when I wore them without a lip liner. For the price point, I feel it was worth getting all of them as I love changing my lip colour on a daily basis. My two favourites are Coy and Pin up. Hope you find this review useful. Thank you for coming by.

Hi Everyone, here a Spring/Summer ready makeup look. I love eyeshadows from Makeup Geek (Link). You get good quality products for a good price. Always on the lookout for products like that. I hope you like this video. If you do, please share it with your friends. Thanks a million!

Guess who is back! Yay, it's me! I was pregnant and gave birth on the 26 January to my love son Michael. Born at 9:38pm, weighing 3.5kg at Union Hospital Hong Kong. Had a great OB Dr Chueng Kai Bun who was very professional in the whole delivery process. Could not have ask for more as everything went very smoothly.

I was worried that my firstborn would be jealous and create havoc. Fortunately, he bonded with his little brother from day one. However, he does show some form of jealousy towards us parents. Which I think is normal. It is getting better with time.

These guys are the apples of my eye! My little family. Finally!

It is busy times for me as you can imagine. Luckily I have a great helper/nanny who helps me whenever I need a breather. Can't thank you enough!

Life is good. Am focusing on getting back to shape and doing things I enjoyed before such as YouTube videos, blogging, fashion drawing, etc...

My beautiful family! Who would have thought I would have this today! 😊

Yes, I know! Been under the radar for a while. Life has been very good and busy for me! Now that I have more time, thought of doing a makeup tutorial since I have been always asked to do one!

This look is perfect for the festive season! One cannot go wrong with this one, as I have made it as simple and easy to follow using few products. If you do not have the same product as what I have used in this video, just use whatever you have at hand.

My camera does not do justice to the sparkly pigment I have used here! So watch the video to see this beautiful pigment from Makeupgeek.com.
